Facebook’s Advertising Goals
What does Facebook think about your advertising dollars?
You are the target demographic they’re trying to reach!
With that in mind, Facebook has simplified its ad creation process!
Your Facebook Advertising Goals
Ask yourself what specific goal applies to your campaign.
Is it to:1.Increase your number of fans?2.Improve your reach?3.Increase your sharing power?4.Increase your engagement?
Why Do Businesses Go for the “like” Power?
The Strategy:1.Attract as many
interactive followers2.People like to
engage (not buy)
You get the like but not the
engagement or activity.
Why Do Businesses Go for the “like” Power?
When compared to Peoples Jewellers (39,671 likes)...
Q Q If 80 of your 89 “likes” had actually clicked through, read your page, left comments or “liked” a post...who really has
the higher rate of engagement – Yours with interactivity and action or the one who just has a high number of “likes?”
More Importantly...
1. Who is building trust?2. Who is creating a solid reputation?3. Who is attracting fans who will interact?
It’s not enough to attract “likes” alone.
You need interactive, passionate engagement in order to expand your
reach.
Your Goal Should Be To:
Make them interact with your page and bring it to life (build a community)
Share your content (to increase your reach)
Social Proof?
Fans are much more likely to jump into discussion with their two-cents worth, increasing your reach to people outside of your circle.
Your posts will automatically be targeted to more people if you are
paying Facebook for an ad or a Sponsored Story.
The Biggest Mistake?
Not keeping your goals and the psychology and habits of social media users –
regardless of their niches demographics – in mind.
